Fascism is the most promising political ideology IMO. Here is why: Fascism incorperates the entire nation into a living breathing entity. By that I mean Fascism places the goals of the NATION before the goals of its individuals. In this way, the nation makes great strides, and as a result, the individual makes great strides as well. Nationalism is fleeting in the world today. The U.N. and increased globalization are making National Pride less noticable throughout the world.

I truly do believe that most Americans want a fairly liberal form of government,but every so often I have to come to terms with the fact that,for whatever reason,not all citizens of this country share the same goals. We're not just battling ignorance and a handful of PNACers. Sometimes the light goes on in my head and I realize we're battling an ideology that is shared by some of our fellow countrymen.

1. Yeah, it's weird.

It's definitely weird.

There are STILL frickin' fascists in the world.

2. Truly scary

that is why nationalism can be harmful. Personally, I view nationalism as tool that should only be used a trump card. It saved France during the time of Joan of Arc.

3. my stepmom is a fascist. No joke.

I know that sounds funny but it's true. She would never call herself that because she's too uneducated to know the meaning of the word.

But she fits every single one of the criteria.

I think there are many natural fascists out there. It's a combination of a certain personality type combined with ignorance and fear and a certain belief system that has developed in their lives.

I'd hazard to guess they're a measurable percentage of any population.
